This book is better than the first, if that is possible. I didn't know this was a series until the last page of Hunger Games. Now I am hooked. Catching Fire goes so deeper than Hunger Games. You learn more about the characters and your hatred for President Snow goes so much deeper!! Couldn't put it down. I don't think I can wait a year for book #3.

I read "The Hunger Games" on a 8 hour flight between the UK and Chicago will exhausted and surrounded by screaming babies, and yet managed to be completely immersed in the world Collins creates. The moment I landed, I searched the airport of a copy of Catching Fire, only to find that not a single store in the area carried a copy. I ended up ordering it off of Walmart due to the unbeatable price, and once it arrived, I was happy to find that my expectations for the story for by far surpassed. While I definitely wished things went differently for the characters, I spend the entire weekend craving moment when I could slip away from the family and re-immerse myself in the world of the games. It's brutal and grusome, but oh so wonderfully written that I was just pulled more strongly too it.
I would HIGHLY recommend this book to anyone that asks, and Walmart is now my go to spot of the best prices online for new books!!!

This is the 2nd book for the hunger games series and it was an AWESOME book. I finished the book in 2 nights and even though i love to read, it has to be a good book to keep me up 2 nights in a row! The ending will have you craving more! I'm just sad that i will have to wait a whole year before the next book comes out!
